    In 1984 my parents were in London Thanksgiving week. Imagine the surprise when a week or so after they returned home this Special appeared on television. The memories were so fresh that parts of the Special were like watching a home movie. I recorded it that year and we watched it annually. They have passed on, but I still watch it.

    This program should be restored and ABC should setup an archive account on RUclips so that programs like this are available for future generations.

    Loved Perry Como. His beautiful singing is unrivalled by anyone else. He simply was the best. Even now Christmas isn't Christmas without listening to Perry. Thanks for sharing and including my favourite song "O Holy Night".

    I watch this video every Christmas since it first aired in 84. My Maternal Grandfather was from Sweden and we always had one of those little painted orange horses on our Christmas trees when I was a kid growing up. We also had a Tomplegurba ( I am sure I spelt that horribly wrong) but it is a little elf who helps Santa deliver Christmas presents.

    I likely missed this in mid-December 1984 as I was working at a department store that Christmas season, and probably was working that night. I didn't have a VCR yet...not for another year.

    This was the very first Christmas special I ever taped on a VCR. But in all the times I've watched it over the years, I keep thinking there was a goof in the editing of this because we first have a scene of Perry and AM riding the train out from London to the countryside but then after a commercial break they're back in London doing Christmas shopping. The scenes should have been reversed.
